Safety:
Handle with care. Before and during use, observe all safety labels on packaging and paint containers,
consult HEMPEL Safety Data Sheets and follow all local or national safety regulations.

SURFACE PREPARATION:
New steel: Remove oil and grease etc. thoroughly with suitable detergent. Remove salts and other contaminants by high pressure fresh water cleaning. Abrasive blasting to minimum Sa 2? (ISO 8501-1:2007) with a surface profile corresponding to Rugotest No. 3, N9a to N10, preferably BN9a to BN10,Keane-Tator Comparator, 2.0 G/S or ISO Comparator, Medium (G). Apply immediately after cleaning.
All damage of shopprimer and contamination from storage and fabrication should be thoroughly cleaned prior to overcoating. For repair and touch-up use: HEMPADUR QUATTRO 17634.
Ballast tanks and cargo oil tanks: See separate APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
Steel, maintenance: Remove oil and grease, etc. with suitable detergent. Remove salt and other contaminants by (high pressure) fresh water cleaning. Clean damaged areas thoroughly by power tool cleaning to St 3 (minor areas) or by abrasive blasting to min. Sa 2, preferably to Sa 2?. Improved surface preparation will improve the performance of the paint. As an alternative to dry cleaning, water jetting to sound, well adhering coat and/or to steel. Intact coat must appear with roughened surface after the water jetting. By water jetting to steel, cleanliness shall be Wa 2 - WA 2? (atmospheric exposure) / minimum Wa 2? (immersion) (ISO 8501-4:2006). A flash-rust degree of maximum M (atmospheric exposure) / M, preferably L (immersion) (ISO 8501-4:2006) is acceptable before application. Feather edges to sound and intact paint. Dust off residues. Touch up to full film thickness.
On pit-corroded surfaces, excessive amounts of salt residues may call for water jetting or wet abrasive blasting, alternatively dry abrasive blasting followed by high pressure fresh water hosing, drying, and finally, dry abrasive blasting again.
Other substrates: contact Hempel.

APPLICATION CONDITIONS:
Use only where application and curing can proceed at temperatures above: -10°C/14°F. The
temperature of the paint itself should be above: 15°C/59°F. Apply only on a dry and clean surface with
a temperature above the dew point to avoid condensation. In confined spaces provide adequate
ventilation during application and drying.

PRECEDING COAT:
None, or as per specification. When diluted to 25-30%, the product can be used as blast primer
preceding a full coat application of the product.

SUBSEQUENT COAT:
According to specification.

REMARKS:
Weathering/service
temperatures: The natural tendency of epoxy coatings to chalk in outdoor exposure and to become more sensitive to mechanical damage and chemical exposure at elevated temperatures is also reflected in this product.
Has a tendency to yellow after application. This has no influence on the performance nor does the ellowing affect any topcoat applied.
Induction time:To facilitate proper application properties it is recommended to allow the thoroughly mixed BASE and CURING AGENT to prereact before application at temperatures below: 15°C/59°F.
Pot life of mixed paint:3 hours - 15°C/59°F, 2 hours - 20°C/68°F, 1.5 hour - 25°C/77°F, 1 hour - 30°C/86°F
The viscosity can be too high for airless spray application below: 15°C/59°F. Temperatures above 30°C/86°F should preferably be avoided.
Film thicknesses/thinning:In case two-component spray-equipment is used consult separate APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS.
May be specified in another film thickness than indicated depending on purpose and area of use. This will alter spreading rate and may influence drying time and overcoating interval. Normal range dry is:100-200 micron/4-8 mils. For ballast tanks and cargo oil tanks at newbuilding stage minimum specified dft is: 2 x 160 micron. (Consult the separate APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS)
Shades:Among the standard shades in the assortment, there are shades available containing aluminium; such as shade nos. 23420, 15740 and 57530.
Overcoating:Overcoating intervals related to later conditions of exposure: If the maximum overcoating interval is
exceeded, roughening of the surface is necessary to ensure intercoat adhesion.
Before overcoating after exposure in contaminated environment, clean the surface thoroughly with high pressure fresh water hosing and allow drying.
Note: HEMPADUR QUATTRO 17634 For professional use only.
